Beyond the Roman wall are the remains of an aqueduct and forum. The local museum houses artifacts excavated from the site.
Twelve kilometres from Condeixa is the old university town of Coimbra. It was founded in the thirteenth century and, until the 1900's, was the only one in Portugal. It has a rich academic tradition and its law facalty has world wide reknown. The student population is noted for its vibrancy.

The university is situated at the top of a hill and dominates the old town with its narrow cobbled streets and courtyards. There is a Baroque library with magnificent wall and ceiling paintings that houses a large collection of rare books.

Another building of note is the Old Cathedral (Se Velha) which was originally built in the twelfth century and is a fine example of Romanesque architecture containing impressive tombs of former bishops.
